NEW REALITIES AFTER COVID-19
Funding. Government and international donors seek solutions (both research and action) to combat COVID-19, future pandemics, and residual effects (supply chain, food security, etc.). Now is the time for international offices to take an inventory of faculty research activity to identify funding to solve COVID-19 and connect to international partners.
Adaptability and Flexibility. In the past few months, HEIs have ended in-person classes, moved instruction to virtual settings, closed campus buildings. Administrators have migrated to telework, and many teachers
(many without specific training) have implemented online education for the first time. Some HEIs are launching virtual campus tours, online open houses and recruiting events. We’ve seen robust communications strategies to plan for Fall 2020 disruptions. Recruiters at HEIs are also being more flexible with admissions requirements: deferred standardized tests after first semester, accepting unofficial transcripts and their submission deadlines, waiving final semester transcript requirements.
